Success!

Congrats, Rebecca!!!

Great story, Rebecca!

Congrats everyone!

I myself recently got published on 365Tomorrows and made my first paid sale on Theme of Absence for their November issue! I got a whole 3 dollars for it, which is a pittance--but I'll gladly trade beer for writing.

Jeeon,
Getting paid to write = getting paid to write.

My first paycheck was also three bucks. I took it as a sign of humble beginnings.

And here's a new story from me!
My first piece of humor ever published.

I hope you like it anyway.

Nice work! I remember 365Tomorrows from when I first started writing. Had no idea they were still going.

Congrats jeeohn, Dustin!

I just received my first pro-level acceptance. Nature Futures! This was on my bucket list because as a former scientist I really want to be able to say I was published in Nature

Congratulations dustin and jeeohn and aaron!

First paycheck, awesome. First humor, also awesome. First pro-level acceptance. Awesome. Good stuff is happening around here!

I recently received my first fictional paycheck as well...or rather, paycheck for fiction (grin)

I'm in a good mood.

Thanks for the kudos yall, congrats to everyone else! First pro sale is super sweet!

Oooh! So many successes! Congrats all of you. So inspiring!
Write on!

Thanks guys! Drabbles are fun

So, what's the usual over / under on the "Under Review" status for Asimov's? I've never lasted longer than 15 minutes in that stage, but I've had a story sitting there since around 9:30 last night. I figured it was late, readers went home, and fully expected a form rejection this morning, but...nothing yet. It's almost noon, and I find my mind getting my hopes up.

Are they based in the UK? Is this normal? Can I safely assume it made it past the slush pile, at least? The anticipation is killing me!

Specklit, woohoo!

They're in NYC, owned and operated by Dell Magazines. Good luck!

I suppose a simple Google search would have worked, but my brain wasn't working earlier this morning. Thanks for the info! Got home from work and it's still under review, so I take that as a good sign.

In addition, I had another piece accepted for publication, this time in the November issue of Five on the Fifth, due to appear on Nov. 5th! Non-paying, but the story is two years old and had already run the gauntlet of pro / semi-pro markets, so I don't feel too bad about it; just glad it's out there. 😀

Congrats, Dustin, Aaron, Liz and Jeeohn! Am I forgetting anyone?

My story "Fugue in a Minor Key," which I think was an HM at one point, is in this month's issue of Galaxy's Edge: http://galaxysedge.com/n11.htm

Very nice

I've been head down in my novel -- almost done 71,000 words out of an estimated 80,000.
But to all the great success stories here:
Hurray!

Also a success worth celebrating. Well done, Bob!
